The developers of Wild Hearts have admitted that the strange performance boosting method discovered by players actually works.

Last week’s launch of action-RPG Wild Hearts wasn’t entirely successful. The main reason for player dissatisfaction is performance issues, especially on PC. However, fans have found an unusual way to partially improve performance, and the developers have just confirmed that the method actually works.

  1. This involves changing the audio settings menu from stereo, which is selected by default, to 5.1/7.1. Although it sounds strange, in fact the forums are full of reports from gamers that the method actually works.
  2. A developer reported that the solution had been tested and the team found that it actually worked. He also thanked the players who came up with the method, namely Ryan and a fan of the ProfessionalAnimal27 handle.
  3. The developer also added that work on an update to improve performance on PC is progressing quickly. The patch is expected to debut this week..

Weird bugs on PS5 too

Technical issues don’t just affect the PC version. On PlayStation 5, the game tends to freeze. A fix is ​​also in the works here, but until it’s released, the devs will come up with their own method to fix one of the bugs causing this. During the game, go to the quick menu (by pressing the PS button) and select “Game Base”, then check the list of blocked players in the settings. Wild Hearts doesn’t work well when you have 100 or more blocked people, so you should reduce the number to at least 99.

Due to these technical issues, the game was initially received very coldly. The day after its release on Steam, only 32% of player reviews praised Wild Hearts. Over the weekend, the situation improved a bit and now 44% of user reviews are positive. It’s still not an impressive result, but it’s clearly better than it was right after his debut.

The number of PC gamers is increasing

It should be mentioned that although gamers complain about the technical condition of the PC version of Wild Hearts, don’t stop them from playing. Since the day of its release, the game’s activity scores on Steam have steadily increased. A new record was set yesterday with 28,511 concurrent users.
